Abstract
Globalization is a reality hard to escape in the modern fast-shrinking world. All aspects of life are being influenced by globalization and health, including oral health is no exception. Globalization has positive as well as negative impact on the societies. While the quality of care provided with latest equipment is evident, it comes with a price of increased costs. This may result in limited access to the latest technologies to the economically lesser privileged masses, particularly in the developing countries like India. As the gap between the economically abled and not so pillaged widens, the affordability of access to dental care services too becomes skewed. The plan should be to bridge the gap and develop technologies through global participation to ensure access to quality oral health services to all individuals using appropriate technologies and at a cost affordable and sustainable by the nation and society. This paper attempts to locate the status of health services with special reference to oral health in the backdrop of globalization spreading across the world especially since the last 2-3 decades.
